Azure table storage

Azure provides table storage, which is a key value data storage in an Azure storage account. Azure maintains three copies of the data and makes them available in times of need. The data is stored in partitions with each partition, identified using a partition key and each row is assigned a RowId. Both the RowID and PartitionID are part of data payload. It provides storage for data without a schema, similar to NoSQL data stores. In fact, NoSQL data can be stored in Azure Tables easily.

A storage account can have multiple tables, and each table stores entities identified using partition and row identifiers.
